Oh, my mistake, you really are reading absolutely nothing from the target, 
rather than it being corruption.

If it is, then it can't have received anything from GDB that told it to 
switch to GDB remote protocol mode. Otherwise you wouldn't be able to as 
it would be expecting GDB output.

Unfortunately GDB can't. I suggest you look at flow control and ensure 
that is off. Also make sure nothing else is accessing the serial port at 
the time. Try minicom instead of ckermit just in case.
